The DGSS mechanisms may include mechanisms for determining an instantaneous field of view (IFOV) and mechanisms for modifying transmission characteristics while network antennas and power radiated by such antennas are within a window encompassing the IFOV. For example, when the IFOV of a satellite sensor for measuring atmospheric water includes a 5G antenna, the power of the 5G antenna may be reduced, the 5G antenna may be prevented from utilizing a segment of the electromagnetic spectrum, etc. The DGSS mechanisms may also determine actual out of band emissions for a specific pixel associated with the IFOV and improve pixel location determinations. | 2021-02-25 |
20210058147 | ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT, USER EQUIPMENT, WIRELESS COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An electronic equipment, a user equipment, a wireless communication method, and a storage medium, the electronic equipment comprising a processing circuit and being configured to: receive from a user equipment a random access request message that is expected access a satellite equipment; and in response to the random access request message, send to the user equipment the advance in timing between the user equipment and the satellite equipment to be accessed. By using said electronic equipment, user equipment, wireless communication method, and storage medium, a user equipment in a satellite communication system may more quickly and efficiently acquire control information relating to uplink transmission. | 2021-02-25 |
20210058148 | DOPPLER COMPENSATION FOR NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORK - Various arrangements for compensating for Doppler shift on a non-terrestrial orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) network are presented. A received frequency of a downlink satellite message received from a satellite may be determined. A downlink frequency delta between an expected frequency of the downlink satellite message and the received frequency of the downlink satellite message can be calculated. An uplink frequency delta based on the calculated downlink frequency delta may be calculated. An uplink transmission frequency at which an uplink OFDM symbol is transmitted may be calculated based on the calculated uplink frequency delta. | 2021-02-25 |
